The student may cancel this agreement and obtain a refund by giving written notice to the school at the address shown at the top of the first page of this agreement.

WITHDRAWAL FROM COURSE A student has the right to withdraw from this program of instruction at any time, and receive a refund of tuition and amounts paid for equipment. If the student withdraws from the program of instruction after the expiration date of the time for canceling this agreement, the student is obligated to pay only for educational services rendered and any equipment not returned, plus a non-refundable registration fee of $125.00. For example, if a student enrolls in a 100 hour program and withdraws after receiving 35 hours of instruction, and if the student paid a $125.00 registration fee and $2,000 tuition, the school would deduct the $125.00 registration fee from the amount received, divide the remaining $2,000 by the number of hours in the program (2000 / 100 = 20) and multiply that hourly amount times the number of hours received by the student (35 x 20 = $700.) The amount paid, in excess of that amount would be the amount of the refund. ($2,000 - $700 = $1,300 Refund Amount. In addition, the refund would include any amount paid for equipment, which is subsequently returned in good condition.
